A Documentary and a Book
A Documentary and a Book
A friend whose judgement I highly respect has just watched and now recommends the following Documentary:
"The Way of the Psychonauts"
You can google it and watch it for a small fee (about $5.00). It includes interviews with folks like Stan Grof, Rupert Sheldrake, and other spiritual adventures of recent times. These were indeed the pioneers of the spiritual awakening movement and the documentary promises to be quite interesting.
The book that I am currently reading is called "The Mind of the Cells," by Sat Prem. Though written some years ago, it is "the key to man's passage to the next species." Sat Prem was the primary disciple of 'The Mother " (Shri Aurobindo's spiritual wife) and he recorded many of her sayings and commentaries. These are cutting edge notions of what is in store for us as we literally transmute into a new form of our prior selves. It is not an easy read, but you can obtain a copy (if you wish to explore these radical ideas) from:
https://www.auromere.com/products/mind-of-the-cells/
This edition costs under $10.00.
I am a slow reader, but the main idea I have received so far is that "man" is a transitional being, a form who will evolve into another species as time progresses. This notion requires much thought and contemplation to assimilate its meaning and ramifications. A friend and I are going to read it "together" and discuss some of the main ideas through zoom. If you have any questions you want us to consider, you are welcome to contact me and I will raise them in our zoom session.
